Councilmember Tommy Wells, Chair of the Committee on Human Services, announces a

Public Oversight Roundtable on a “Review of Ten Proposed Child and Family Services Agency
Human Care Agreements for Congregate Foster Care Services.” The Child and Family Services
Agency (CFSA) has initiated a change of procurement strategy in its recent solicitation for the provision
of congregate foster care services. The change includes utilization of human care agreements that
incorporate performance indicators in the areas of safety, permanence and well being. The purpose of this
Roundtable is to provide the Committee an opportunity to review the ten proposed CFSA human care
agreements for congregate care services and examine the solicitation process utilized by the agency.

The Roundtable will be held on Monday, July 12, 2010, at 1:00 p.m., in Room 123 of the John A.
Wilson Building, 1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20004. Those who wish to testify
